Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.
Postdoc in interoperable data infrastructures fo ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
The section for Autonomous Materials Discovery (AMD) at DTU Energy is looking for an outstanding candidate for a postdoc within the field of data analytics applied to energy materials and devices with a strong link to atomistic simulations for the materials of the future.
Responsibilities and qualifications
The successful candidate will break new ground in developing an interoperable data infrastructure to work with curated multi-source, multi-fidelity data from computer simulations, experiments, machine learning/AI, and robotic experiments. Moreover, the successful candidate will contribute to the development of autonomous workflows integrating multi-scale simulations, experimental characterization, and autonomous synthesis robotics. These implementations will be general and will be applied to core technologies of the department, e.g., batteries and catalysts.
The candidate will work in collaboration with multiple national and Horizon Europe projects, which include: the “Battery Interface Genome – Materials Acceleration Platform” (BIG-MAP, which seeks to reinvent the way we invent batteries); BATTERY 2030+ CSA3 (which aims at contributing to the definition of research data management standards and to develop an EU battery data landscape); “DE-centralised Cloud labs fOr inDustrialisation of Energy materials” (DECODE, aiming at the development of decentralized autonomous laboratories to discovery new green chemicals); and “Battery Cell Assembly Twin” (BatCAT, which focuses on creating digital twin for battery manufacturing that integrates data-driven and physics-based methods). Moreover, this project is strongly liked with CAPeX, the new “Pioneer Center for Accelerating P2X Materials Discovery” anchored at DTU Energy.
The successful candidates should have a PhD degree in computer science, physics, chemistry or engineering.
A successful candidate:
As a formal qualification, you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent).
